Summary/Abstract: The protagonist of the article is a man, a Pole born in Vilnius a few months before the outbreak of the November Uprising, who managed to realize the dream of a career in the capital of the tsars. He found there not only a good job, but also a life companion with whom he raised a family. Artur Doliński – he came to Petersburg at the age of 24 and left it as a 53-year-old pensioner. The city was a place where he matured, where he became independent, where his vision of the world was strengthening, where he pursued his passions. We learn about his private life on the Neva primarily from correspondence with his family – father, mother, half-siblings and friends
